The new state capitol
The authors argue that Pennsylvanians have the right to complete information about the new State Capitol, especially regarding cost. While the authors favor the new building and acknowledge the expenditure required for such a grand building, they feel the furnishing was a “reckless and wanton extravagance.” Thus, they conclude there was dishonesty and abuse of position by someone on the Board, a matter which should be investigated.
